At 1st Choice Home Care, we combine professional excellence with a genuine heart for service. As a fully insured agency, we prioritize the safety and peace of mind of our clients and their families. What truly sets us apart is our commitment to continuous improvement and caregiver excellence. We conduct monthly quizzes to keep our caregivers sharp and informed, along with quarterly training sessions to ensure they are up-to-date with the latest care techniques and best practices. We also perform monthly evaluations to monitor the quality of care and address any concerns proactively. Communication is key to our approach, which is why we send out a monthly newsletter called THE CARE CONNECTION to our clients and their families. This newsletter keeps everyone informed about important updates, health tips, community resources, and helpful advice to support the caregiving journey. Our caregivers are not just service providers—they are trusted companions and advocates who treat each client like family. This holistic, attentive approach ensures that every person in our care feels valued, respected, and supported.

Safety is our top priority. Our caregivers are trained in fall prevention, infection control, and emergency response. We also assess the home for potential hazards and work with families to make necessary adjustments. Caregivers document each visit and report changes in condition to supervisors and family when appropriate.

Home care can be paid for through private pay, long-term care insurance, Veterans benefits, and in some cases, Medicaid waiver programs. During your consultation, we’ll review your payment options and help you navigate available resources to make care as affordable as possible. Certainly!
